LAKAWA

Two days ago I drilled a hole in WBL. Over 7 inches of ice 200 yards offshore. Lots of ice fishermen way out driving ATVs and hauling fish houses. Should be good to go when the wind cooperates, but be prepared. take some ice picks and go with a buddy. See you on the lake!

Tighe, How about AWAKAL. Stands for All Windriders are Kin and Likable. Feel free to insert your own more clever words.

Found a 4 point vest harness near Ramsey Beach on May 5. Unlike any kite harness I've seen, but would like to return it to its rightful owner. Scott. SJOZAC@comcast.net

Anyone have advice for a light wind, or beginning board size or manufacturer for a 170 pound novice? Any experience with the Myply or the spleene door? Thanks.

A big thank you to Tighe and Rodger for helping my daughter Megan with tips, techniques and encouragement on her first day on skis with the kite. She's hooked now! Best day on the WBL this winter so far. Cheers for many more and snow from Ullr.

Good late afternoon on WBL. Tighe, thanks for being the Obi-Wan to the kiting community. As a newbie, I appreciate the tips and techniques advice that helps so much to shorten the learning curve. Your enthusiasm and supportive positive attitude is always refreshing, I am impressed by the friendlines...

I was out on WBL today. Drilled a hole, ice is 24 inches thick. Two and a half to three inches of soft snow. Should be doable Saturday.
